More Information
Summary:A driver circuit for laser diodes is provided with first and second terminals for the laser diodes. The driver circuit also includes capacitors, each being assigned to a laser diode, and at least one input for connection to a charging means. Further included is at least one input for a control signal and at least one first switch means. Each capacitor is connected to the input for connection to the charging means, and a first terminal of each capacitor is connected to the first terminal for the laser diode. The second terminal for the laser diode is connected to a first terminal of the at least one first switch means, and a second terminal of each capacitor is connected to ground. A second terminal of the at least one first switch means is connected to ground and wherein the at least one input for a control signal is connected to a control terminal of the at least one first switch means.
